How You View Facebook Followers

The Facebook 'Follow' feature makes it possible for Facebook users to view and receive notifications about your public status and page updates without necessarily having to add you as a 'friend.' A built-in interface helps to manage the settings of this feature and provides information on your 'followers'. It is a very effective tool for professionals that want to generate interest in their businesses, skills or their knowledge.

In the same way, you can also "follow" the public updates of any personal page/profile you find inspirational and people who visit your page or profile can see who you are following. Knowing your audience and helping your audience know you is useful when it comes to marketing your business.
